stop [ENTER] from sending the form in NN/Firefox

[Perttu Pulkkinen]

I use hit two function to stop [ENTER] from sending the form. First one I
use to move focus to the next desired field, second one to do nothing (when
there is no desired field to go).

Works in IE & Opera. How can I make these Netscape/Firefox-compatible (while
still keep them working in IE/Opera)?

function moveto(goal)
{
if(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 13)
document.getElementById(goal).focus();
return !(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 13);
}

function noenter()
{
return !(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 13);
}

You need to pass the event object to your functions. window.event is a
MS implementation. The event object will be passed as first argument to
your event listener.
